I Want To Be a Nobleman

Chapter 116 The Orc Threat

The civil war among human kingdoms is getting more and more chaotic. Many little nobles are wondering, what are we fighting for?

The initial war was launched to snatch the land of the Kingdom of Corondo and the Water of Heroes, but why did the four kingdoms fight in chaos later on? And even the nobles of the same country began to fight against each other.

The matter of the Sun Scepter has not been spread yet, but some smart nobles have discovered that the big nobles have stopped, and they have withdrawn from the battlefield wisely. Only the idiots above are still attacking each other.

The nobles are the masters of their own territories, and they have no real superiors. When they get angry, they naturally lead troops to attack without reason, and they don't listen to the voice of dissuasion.

Finally, after half a year, the strength of most of the small nobles was severely depleted, and a small number of smart people would not be fooled. The big nobles felt that it was almost the same, and it was time to make peace.

The announcement of the truce reached the hands of every noble in the four countries in just one week. If anyone dared to continue to mobilize troops, they would be jointly attacked by the kings of the four countries and more than a dozen marquis families.

Those nobles who were severely damaged are naturally full of anger. You were the ones who said the war at the beginning, and you are the ones who said the truce now!

At the beginning, we agreed to defeat the enemy together to gain benefits, but now you have nothing to lose, we are injured, and you directly announce the truce, so we are not being tricked?

However, it's useless to be dissatisfied. If they were in their heyday, they were still qualified to challenge the big nobles. After being severely damaged, they could only obey the armistice agreement.

However, there is no future, the four human kingdoms, the noble meeting of nearly 400 nobles will be held in a month, and at the same time, the news of the sun scepter has finally been spread.

The war is over, and now that the strength of each nobleman has stabilized, the plan to divide the cake has to be discussed. Even King Aldo or King Prague needs the support of allies.

Other nobles have to divide factions and form alliances. In this case, it is impossible to keep the Sun Scepter and the new empire secret. You can't ask the nobles to say:

"My friend, why don't you join my alliance? What is it? You ask me about my alliance? I'm sorry, I have to keep this matter a secret, so I can't tell you yet!"

If you are so insincere, it is clear that you want to use others, so ghosts will believe you. Nobles are not fools. After their interests have been greatly harmed, they will naturally reflect and learn lessons.

King Prague and King Aldo are the two who visited the most nobles. The four kings had a round of competition in advance, and the king of Lucanir and the king of Babylon had already withdrawn from the competition for the throne of the emperor in advance.

The King of Prague even personally came to the three-person alliance of Marcus, Harold, and Cleon to present gifts and seek support, promising a lot of benefits, but Marcus tactfully refused.

As for the struggle between King Aldo and King Prague, those little nobles whose strength has been compromised may fight for their own interests, and it won't be too bad if they lose anyway.

However, Marcus, as a marquis, has the support of the new and powerful nobles Harold and Cleon. The alliance of the three will definitely occupy a place in the new empire, and there is no need to take risks.

Not just Marcus, but basically all the nobles with good strength did not explicitly take refuge in any Aldo or Prague, and they took a melon attitude towards the struggle between the two.

Everyone knows in their hearts that after the establishment of the empire, they will unite to restrict the emperor, and now they will have to break up in the future if they take refuge in it.

The system and laws after the establishment of the empire must be modeled on the Chiat Empire thousands of years ago. Under that system, the emperor had great power and could even exile some ordinary nobles who had made mistakes.

The emperor can also interfere with the empire's finances, laws, and military affairs, even if these must be discussed with the corresponding ministers and approved by the noble council.

But this is still a powerful power over other nobles. If you don’t unite to restrict it, you will definitely suffer. The noble council was established for this purpose. This institution has about one-tenth of the upper nobles in the empire. Everyone understands the meaning of "assisting" the emperor in managing the country.

The biggest difference between an empire and a kingdom is that there is an army and institutions in the name of the country, and any nobles are subject to the management and restrictions of these institutions, which is a little more restrictive than the previous aristocratic system that can do whatever they want and have no taboos.

Especially those small nobles with low status can no longer be the gods of their own territories. If they make big mistakes, they will be punished by the imperial law enforcement team. If there is a big problem in the territory, they will be blamed by the upper nobles. The task, reduced to this end, is really different from before.

However, in Harold's opinion, this is not a bad thing. Now these little nobles who rush to the streets are really too unscrupulous. They really want to do whatever they want in their own territory. They deify themselves and treat ordinary people as ants, so they must be restrained.

The main thing is that Harold himself does not belong to that kind of pathetic little noble class. His ass determines his head. As Marcus's core ally, he is also very strong. He will most likely be a member of the noble council in the future. Not on his head, but he can use the name of the empire to benefit himself.

Although there was no war this month, the nobles were still very busy. Various nobles wooed allies and exchanged benefits. Even Marcus paid a rare visit to his brother and father whom he hadn't seen in more than ten years.

The Marquis of Harlaus is very pleased with his son's achievement, and Sarrik has no jealousy or disgust. It has been almost 20 years, and a little bit of hatred has long since been thrown away. He even has some feelings for this excellent brother close.

Marcus will not threaten his succession to the title. The old Marquis is nearly 90 years old, and the lifespan of nobles who have awakened their blood can easily exceed 100, but their strength will definitely decline, and the power of their blood is getting weaker and weaker. Now Sarrik is already a real manager of the territory.

Bloodline and surname are fetters that can never be separated. Marcus's new Irwin family and their old Irwin family must be natural allies, and Marcus's wife was sent by their family.

Needless to say, the two families will be married all the year round in the future. Even if the descendants of one family die unexpectedly or fail to awaken their blood, the other side will adopt their own outstanding descendants.

Marcus deliberately took Harold and Kryon with him. Both of them were hostile to Saric. It is best to resolve these conflicts, otherwise it will affect the relationship between the families in the future.

Salik was also willing to give gifts to apologize. Harold got a one-handed sword, and he will be a person of status in the future. Usually, his younger brother will do it in fights. It is not normal to carry a two-handed sword with him all the time.

This one-handed sword is gorgeous in shape, exquisite in style, inlaid with various jewels, and expensive, but it is rubbish to use in actual combat, but Harold doesn't care. It's useless to use a one-handed sword to cut people with a sword.

Kryon had a sparring with Sarrik once. Kryon didn't use transformation, and the two sides fought for a long time before Kryon barely won. Sarrik was very strong, no less than Marcus, and belonged to the kind of nobleman with top strength. No wonder Kryon adored him in the first place.

Afterwards, Kryon had a drink alone with Sarrik and talked for a whole night. Kryon had always had a thorn in his heart, and he finally pulled it out. He didn't accept any gifts, saying that he would never treat Sarick or Al again. The Wen family resented.

Just when the nobles were making friends everywhere, a bad news came. The Tuvala Alliance was captured by orcs, and the adjacent Kurt Alliance issued a warning to the whole continent. The green orcs were completely defeated, and the millions of red orcs were completely defeated. March south.

The Tuvala Union, a country of mixed races, has been doing business with orcs for a long time. The orcs invaded humans, wingmen, lizardmen, and even attacked dwarves. The elves never touched the Tuvala Union.

Humans are not surprised that the orcs are coming. Sooner or later, the orcs will come. This is everyone's perception, but they didn't expect that the first one to be invaded was the Tuvala Alliance.

And regardless of national relations, purely in terms of strength, the Tuvala Alliance also has 3 legendary powerhouses, including the Twilight Brigade, there are 4 legends.

To say that it is falling is falling, and it has not been supported by other countries and races!

In the past, the main force of the red orcs had a great time fighting their own orc brothers, the green orcs. Those who came to invade and attack other countries were individual large tribes or a combination of small tribes.

This time the green orcs were routed, the red orcs should have gone all out!

Soon, the aristocratic meeting was held, and the new empire building plan proposed by the human aristocrats was passed without any suspense. Instead of busy discussing the status and division of official positions, they hurriedly discussed how to fight the orcs.

It is impossible for the Kurt Alliance to withstand the orcs, and the orcs have more than one attack route, and an army of orcs may appear on the northern border of the Chiat Empire at any time.

Frankly speaking, many nobles of human beings are very excited. This time, human beings have two legendary powerhouses, not the Grand Duke Lance alone, but also the most heaven-defying artifact in the world, the Sun Scepter.

The large-scale orc invasion is not a bad thing. If it is the same as before, human beings can only resist by themselves, and the main force of the orcs is the common responsibility of the whole continent.

Wingmen, lizardmen, halflings, dwarves, other less active races, and even elves will help fight the orcs.

The elves have nothing to do with the world, and rarely intervene in the struggles between other races, but the domineering orcs must be restricted. When the orcs chased and killed the fleeing humans after the destruction of the empire, it was the archmage who helped stop the orcs' attack and established Three new human kingdoms.

When the orcs unite the mainland elves, they will also feel a headache. The difference in reproductive ability between the two sides is too large, and the elves will not be able to withstand it after a long time.

To a certain extent, elves don't care whether other races fight each other or live in peace, as long as they are not dominant.

It's good to be able to get along peacefully, and the elves will not be attacked if everyone lives in peace.

There is also a desire in the hearts of the human nobles. After uniting all races to defeat the orcs, there will be new changes in the strength of the continent without the strongest overlord. Isn't this the best time for the rise of mankind!

The new empire may have a chance to regain the supremacy of the mainland thousands of years ago! Ambitious nobles such as Marcus, Bragg, Aldo, etc. have ignited raging flames in their hearts. It's great to be born in this era!
